Right on. I'm still trying to figure out how IHB evolved from somewhere I used to go to learn the prices on the latest phase release to this bizarro soap opera. Wow.
Graph --- Speaking of Real Housewives, did you catch Slade Smiley's mug shot in the Reg over the weekend? Priceless!</blockquote>
What a douchebag, just a giant a$$ douchebag. He just moved up five spots on my "If I ever see you in public, I will kick you in the nuts" list. And to think... someone whined about how I shouldn't talk trash on his finances and foreclosure because he kid has brain cancer. Who ever that was, just moved up ten spots on my list.

COSTA MESA ? Slade Smiley, who catapulted to stardom on the reality hit "The Real Housewives of Orange County," spoke out for the first time Monday after spending a night in county jail after authorities said he fell behind on child-support payments for his son Grayson, who is battling a rare form of brain cancer.
"This is an unfortunate situation that has occurred," Smiley said in a statement released by his representative.
"My son is very ill and we have been working on resolving the issue of support versus his enormous medical bills with the appropriate agencies for several months now. It is sad that individuals would take advantage of the situation in an attempt to defame and discredit me in such a public manner. For those who know me, there is nothing more important than my children."
Smiley, 40, was arrested Friday by Costa Mesa police on a $10,000 outstanding civil contempt warrant. Smiley, who lived a lavish Coto de Caza lifestyle with former flame Jo De La Rosa, was released from Orange County jail Saturday morning after posting $10,000 bail. Phil Viardo of Viardo Artists, who represents Smiley, said the reality star did not know about the warrant until he was arrested Friday afternoon.
Smiley has two sons, Grayson and Gavin, from two previous relationships.
Smiley, who works in title insurance, made the jump from "Housewives" to the Bravo show "Date My Ex: Jo and Slade," during which Smiley lived with a group of potential suitors for De La Rosa.</em>
Yeah... I guess the publicly filed lien is too much notice for him. Or maybe his maid answered the door when the process server showed up. What a douche.
